About the Piece
This is the prototype demo piece that I made for my final year project. It is based on the two stories of Dagon and The Doom that came to Sarnath and I hope to expand and build on it further leading into pieces such as The Nameless City and more. The goal of the piece was to replicate the short stories while also combining them into a piece of interactive, choose your own adventure, storytelling that will ultimately combine all of HP Lovecraft’s stories and allow people to explore them without having to pull out a copy of the Necronomicon. Much of the story is taken from the text and I have tried to stay as true to the tales as I can while still making room for adaptation and gameplay. It’s still in the early stages of development as I was limited to a 10,000 word limit with critical reflection I would like to branch it out further and provide more choices and possibilities for interaction where I can.
To play I advise opening the window via the button in the bottom right of the game box or via itch.io at the link above.
